No one can remember? I'll take the bait-
Star Wars Generation kid here, grew up in rural Minnesota with a rotary phone and eventually a black and white television with two channels. Wanted to watch a moving picture? We rented the VHS tape AND the player (this is how I first saw Episode IV, though my mom says she brought me to see The Return of the Jefi in the theater). Like another commenter(s), I usually had a book and/or notebook/sketchbook with me, and I spent a lot of time daydreaming.
